Latvia's tumultuous history over the past century is marked by revolutions, wars, and the struggle for independence, followed by a descent into authoritarianism. The impact of World War II was profound, resulting in the Holocaust, executions, and a significant refugee crisis. Subsequent Soviet rule brought deportations and forced collectivization, leading to resistance movements. After nearly fifty years, Latvia finally regained its independence, emerging from the shadows of Soviet oppression to pursue its potential.
